Hi All


I am trying to include a FBA command that will convert the FAT disk to
NTFS.

When I run the command

convert c: /FS:NTFS /X /V


I get promped to run the command at the next reboot. Press Y and it
converts it at the next reboot.
Is there any way to pass the Y to the command?
 
Hi,

If there is Yes swith then try:

convert c: /FS:NTFS /X /V /Y
If it is supported and undocumented like in some other command it will work.
Please let us know how it went.

Regards,
Slobodan
 
LabRat,

Set up the BootExecute registry key directly to add (better replace) string "autoconv \DosDevices\c: /FS:NTFS" under
[HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager].

convert c: /FS:NTFS /X /V /Y does not work - invalid paramater /Y

I have created the additional registry item as you described above.
Question is how do i remove that registry entry and when can i do it.
 
You can call "reg.exe delete ..." do remove this from some FBA phase.
Type reg delete /? to see parameters.
